The Fish

I penciled this drawing in from a textured wall. It looks like straight lines but if you look closely its detailed.

Cupcake

This is a cupcake I created using a leaf for the icing. I used an old vegetable slicer for the base of the cupcake.

"Imaginary Art"

I created this octopus by using different textures from two vases that we have. The face is actually a leave that I transformed into a face. The tentacles, nose, and eyes came from another vase. I used a crayon, because the textures showed up really nice, and because it aded color to the piece.

"Pyramids Sunset Frotagge"

i



My inspiration for my landscape came from the circle in the middle, I started drawing the top of a jar and it started inspiring me to make it as the sun. After that it all came into place, the sand was the bottom of a silver jewelery box. Then the pyramids that I created with the top of a side table. I did a couple different drafts since I wanted to create the a two dimensional picture with my shadows. Over all I wasn't as satisfied with my picture I wish I had more elements to work with, but at the moment I couldn't find many.

Horse Frottage

well this isn't exactly an imaginary creation but i really love horses.
i made several but this one is my favorite because it's brown and it almost looks like a cave drawing
and i also love how it looks like it's running.
i used oil pastels and the wall for texture.

Butterfly rubbing

I have made a butterful image using many different items that I found around the house or in nature. Unforntunately blogger is unable to upload my picture. I have tried serveral times using different computors. So I will describe it to you. For the wings I used a variety of different leaves and the rough texture of my walls at home. For the body of the butterfly I used the bottom of my shoe. The atenaes I use the rubbing of a braided whip and belly dancer coins. I found the process difficult due to the crayons leaving lines on the edges. I had attempted todo a dragon but the tines kept running teh todtally picture. But it was very fun todo with my son. He made his own rubbings too while I made mine. And we took nature walks to find different leaves for both of our rubbings.

I picked my dog her name is channel I was out side with her and I love her. So I used the bottomed of my shoe for the clouds to it gives it a look like if it was moving. For the sun, dog and back ground I used the wall. Then went out side and grabbed a leaf and that’s how I made the little tree.

"MASK FROTTAGE"

THIS IS MY FROTTAGE MASK, INSPIRED ON THE MEXICAN WRESTLER NAMED "EL PAYASO". TO CREATE THIS MASK'S DRAWING, I USED DIFFERENT TEXTURES SUCH AS FROM THE WALLS, CEILING, AND ALSO FROM A HANDMADE TABLECLOTH. THE EYES, NOSE, AND MOUTH RESULTED FROM RUBBING THE TABLECLOTH. FROM RUBBING THE TEXTURE OF THE WALLS, I CREATED THE FACE, AND THE HAIR RESULTED FROM RUBBING THE CEILING. I USED A BLACK CRAYON FOR THE RUBBING PROCESS.      

" My Rubbing Creature"

So my inspiration for this creature, was the movie "Finding Nemo". This movies is one of my favorite movie of all times. The way the creatures are presented in the movie are fascinating. The colors are just amazingly beautiful, especially the coral where Nemo lives. That's why I created a fish as a creature. I used my mom's candle vase she had on her wall for the fishes body. I put a long white piece of paper on top of da candle vase. I then gathered different tree branches from a tree in my backyard and I position them inside the fishes body and I started rubbing away with a black crayola. It was kind of hard to rub and I was getting frustrated because it was not coming out like I wanted it to come out. I was done with the entire fish, so I got a dime and I used it as the eye. Since I put the dime upside down, the face came upside down ( I do not think u can see it in here). I rubbed the dime harder because i wanted to show depth into the fish. I think it did. In my opinion the fish looked lonely sitting there in the white piece of paper, so I added color to it. I drew in bubbles, shrubs, and a rock at the bottom of the paper. I then colored in the stuff I drew and it came out looking pretty good. Since I had drawn in the bubbles and stuff I had to do an ocean. I colored the entire white background that was left with a light blue color pencil. Finally my rubbing creature came out looking like this.:)
